New Brunswick Paper.
From the NetO York sun.
The last issue of the Weekiy Record of
Sussex, Kings county, New Brunswick, has
the name of George Francis Train as "asso-
ciate editor" at the head of its columns.
Its leading article is a five-column report,
in the best Trainesque style, of meeting
there addressed by the citizen, in which it is
stated that A. S. White, NJ. p. p, 'by
whose invitation the lecturer was present.
acted as chairman, and, in introducing ''the
distinguished orator." said, among other
things:
Ladies and gentlemen, if ever you and
as citizens of Sussex had cause for unbounded
pride, it is on this occasion, when SO dis
tinguished gentleman, SO finished an
orator, so great poet, so profound a phi
losopher, as the lecturer of the evening has
so generously vouchsafed to honor us, as he
does tonight by his presence here. By his
transcendent and multilateral ability he
has achieved for himself fame which is
worldwide. In all countries and in every
cline the name of George Francis Train is
household word. In the busy marts of
commerce; in the centres of culture and re-
finement i'll the desert where the Arab
pitches his tent, in the dark continent
where the armor- hided hippotamus wallows
India where the tiger crouches in the
jungle; among the mountains of the snow
capped Himalayas; in the fowery land
where the almond-eyed pig-tailed China
man eats rice with chop sticks; i'll Australia,
where jump the rabbit and kangaroo; in
those barbarian isles where the natives greet
one another by affectionately rubbing noses;
everywhere throughout the whole belt of
the earths circumference, the name of
George Francis Train is established No
name, not even that of Gladstone, of John
l.. Sullivan, or of Buffalo Bill is more known
to fame than that of the distinguished
gentleman seated on the platform at
my side. Even the devil, who is notorious
from qualities far different from those which
characterize the lecturer of tonight even
though, according to Mr.. Trains opinion,
he is the most powerful factor in American
politics, is not more Familiarity known than
the great orator who stands at the apex of
the pyramid of all that is great. And yet
there are not wanting those who, through
envy and malice, would detract from
this great mans greatness. This man
who, as poet, outranks all poets who, as
a philosopher transcends all philosophers;
who, as an orator, has no peer; who as q
statesman, has no equal. You all doubt
less, are aware that the same fabulous
blindness to their best interests, which caused
the American people to reject Daniel Web
ster from the Presidency, has led them to
neglect the golden opportunity once offered
of Inducing Mr.. Train into that office"
Mr.. Train stated that before beginning his
lecture he must acknowledge the very
graceful and complimentary introduction
he had received, which, while full of elo-
quence and beauty, possessed throughout
the highest of all attributes, that of truth.
He was indeed never more eloquently or
courteously introduced to an audience, and
he would say that every word of the chair
mans remarks was strictly true
